Thanks for all of the input, wonderful discussion! Is the general consensus the 028 was their most reliable? And which model of 028? The 028 super? Didn't the early 028s have metal tanks which is better?

I recently went to the local Stihl dealer (also a tool rental company) and asked them what their most reliable saw was. To my amazement, they claimed that MS170 was far more reliable than any of their professional saws (the most popular of which is the MS261). Apparently even though their MS170s...

Anyone?

Do you have pictures? I could be interested.

Hello, If you have any of these, please let me know! There are those who collect chainsaws, but I am interested in collecting clearing saws. I would prefer new in the box if possible. Thanks in advance!

Hello, If anyone has any of these in new condition let me know! There are those who collect chainsaws... I am trying to do the same with clearing saw! Thanks in advance!

It depends on what you want. The fs310 and fs250 are brush cutters, the fs360 and fs460 are clearing saws. If your looking for a brush cutter, I don't think there is a better one on the market than an fs250. That's what I have and it runs like a champ. If your thinning trees, get the fs460...

I've experienced a lot of painful things- got road rash skinned to the bone, broken bone, stepped on several 4 inch nails and shattered heal bone, got some bad saw wounds, but the most painful thing I've ever felt was a carpenter bee sting between the eyes. I went up on a ladder to fix my roof...

I know its not a chainsaw, but i dont know where else to put this. I'm looking to buy a homelite xl100 circular saw in mint or very near mint condition. LMK if you have one. Thank you in advance

So I know Husky makes a lot of the Jonsered saws, but I've heard there are some real Jonsereds out there. So which models does Jonsered actually make? Also another question- why would anybody ever buy a Husqvarna chainsaw when they could buy the better looking sexier Jonsered counterpart?

Idk, I think a forestry clearing saw would kick the cr*p out of that thing in every regard. It cuts faster, easier, and is balanced a lot better. But I always like to see new ideas pop up! I'm sure someone will find a use for it.

thank you all for your replies! very helpful. Looked at the VP and trufuel, nice that they come premiixed! That'll save me time

Which gas stations are they?

You mean aviation fuel in my chainsaw?

Where can I get ethonal-free gasoline for my chainsaw?

If by "piece of junk", you happen to mean one of the best chainsaws ever made, then you are correct. :laugh:

I have an old Poulan Woodshark that seems to run indefinitely on a tank of gas.

You are correct. I've always pronounced it "still" but I see I'm wrong

Here are the correct pronunciations (I think): Husqvarna: Husk-varn-a Stihl: still Jonsered: John-sird Shindaiwa: Shin-day-wuh Tanaka: Tawn-uh-kuh Poulan: Paul-in

What do you mean by MM?
